Hello everyone - W6R3 - whoop. Michael said he thinks I’m a runner now he did indeed!πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I was so excited when I completed W5R3 but somehow today I felt like I turned a corner with my running πŸƒπŸΌβ€β™€οΈ still super slow but forward is forward right. Any ideas on home strength training to help my running. 😁😎 happy Global Running Day peeps.

I was just checking out the Strength and Flex podcasts on the NHS site. I am going to try adding those into my non running days. It's one of my goals for June.

I have only listened to week 1 so far but seems doable.

As above NHS strength and flex... we even have a forum for that.

Now, if anyone knows what makes a runner it’s a 4 time Olympic gold medalist! Slow is good... this is all about endurance. Keep running just the way you are.

Enjoy week 7... you got this.
